WHAT TO EXPECT

While worship at all of our locations may be a bit different, you are welcome to join us at any of our churches. 

All of our churches provide a casual worship experience where all are welcome, whether you come to church every week or haven't been in years. All of our congregations welcome children in worship, with Holy Cross, Trinity, and Elmdale providing Sunday School following the services. 

​

Come as You Are! If you join us on a Sunday, please dress however you feel comfortable! While some may come dressed in their 'Sunday Best' many of our members wear jeans and other comfortable clothing during services. 

Confirmation Program

Our parish comes together for our confirmation programming. Classes meet Wednesdays at 4:30, at Holy Cross during the programming year. Students typically begin the confirmation process in 7th grade, but people of all ages are welcome to take part in some or all of the classes. If you are interested in taking part in the confirmation program at our parish, please contact the pastor to begin the process.
